Unfortunately there is no native way to playback Flash videos on Windows Phone, and there is no way to enjoy Flash games.I've been using Windows Phone since 2010 and hoped that with Windows Phone 8's release in 2012 that there may be a refreshed approach to Flash, but it seems that Microsoft just isn't interested.Note that there are Flash video download apps such as Flash Cinema (http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/app/flash-cinema/be82820d-a350-46fd-98b2-7653711abef5) and there are several YouTube apps.It is worth noting that although Adobe has effectively killed Flash player on Android, Microsoft was keen to have Flash player on Windows 8. Windows Phone 8 and Windows 8 are very closely related so it wouldn't be a complete surprise to see Flash on Windows Phone 8 - the problem is, there doesn't seem to be much demand for it.

Flash to Focus on PC Browsing and Mobile Apps; Adobe to More Aggressively Contribute to HTML5http://blogs.adobe.com/conversations/2011/11/flash-focus.htmlOur future work with Flash on mobile devices will be focused on enabling Flash developers to package native apps with Adobe AIR for all the major app stores. We will no longer continue to develop Flash Player in the browser to work with new mobile device configurations (chipset, browser, OS version, etc.) following the upcoming release of Flash Player 11.1 for Android and BlackBerry PlayBook.
